Alvechurch centenarian Ted Reeves was congratulated on his recent 100th birthday by representatives from his wartime regiment.
Major Nigel Jones, county light infantry secretary from Copthorne Barracks, Shrewsbury (right) and Peter Duckers, curator of the Kings Shropshire Light Infantry Regimental Museum, met with Ted (centre) at The Lawns residential home where he lives.
Ted served with the regiment in the Second World War, and Mr Duckers hopes to record his memories for the regimental museum’s archives.
